Iwasaki Yuhei, who had just been released on bail from the police station, had a dark face and ignored Iwasaki Hideyoshi's open arms.
He snorted coldly and walked past the other party, heading straight to a commercial vehicle behind him.
The smile on Iwasaki Hideyoshi's face did not change, he shrugged his shoulders and followed suit with a smile.
"What instructions does grandpa have?"
"Grandpa said that you should return to China as soon as possible. I will be fully responsible for the affairs here."
Iwasaki Yuhei suddenly stopped and his expression became even worse.
It's not a big deal if the rival family leader sees the joke.
But Hanzo Iwasaki didn’t even give him a chance to atone for his sins, so that’s a big deal!
This shows... Grandpa is very disappointed, the matter is very serious!
"Grandpa still wants you to get the Buddha's head?"
According to common sense, since the Iwasaki family has already made such a big fuss, it is normal to retreat to Fuso and die down.
But now Iwasaki Hideyoshi is allowed to stay in China...which means that grandpa probably hasn't given up yet...
What is the charm of this Buddha head that you still don’t give up after everything has happened?
"Whatever grandpa wants me to do, I don't have to worry about Yuhei Onisan." Iwasaki Hideyoshi said with a smile.
Iwasaki Yuhei stared at the other person's handsome face, which seemed to be wearing a mask, with a stern look in his eyes.
"Don't think that I don't know what you have done. There is an old saying in China, if you don't want others to know, don't do anything except yourself!"
"Uh..." Iwasaki Hideyoshi was stunned. "What did I do?"
Are you still pretending to be with me?
"Huh! Deliberately sabotage my actions, make me fall into such a big mistake, and then take the initiative to replace me...
Wasn't the Buddha's head snatched away by your people?
Now you only need to send the Buddha head to Grandpa. This is indeed a great achievement!
As expected of my Hideyoshi, Doudou! What a good plan!"
Iwasaki Hideyoshi stared at Iwasaki Yuhei with his mouth open, obviously stunned by this scapegoat.
Can you rely on me for this?
"Yuhei Onisan, you have wronged me. At that time, no one else knew what you were doing in China except grandpa and you.
How can I sabotage your move?"
"Hmph! You may not know this in advance, but I used family resources to investigate Li Haitao.
As long as a senior member of the family wants to investigate, they will know that my target is him!
So you found Li Haitao in advance and asked him to perform a play in front of me.
You pretend to cooperate, but you are actually setting a trap for me!
Without Li Haitao as an internal coordinator, who would know the precise timing of my plan?
Without him fighting back, how could I have let the Chinese police catch me!"
Iwasaki Yuhei stared at the opponent.
"Tell me, what tricks did you use to make Director Li drag me into the trap even though he was involved in it?
Do you have more leverage over him? Or have you tied up the other party's children?"
Iwasaki Hideyoshi: "..."
Your analysis was so tough that I almost believed that it was really me who did it!
I admit, if I had known that the Buddha head was so important to Grandpa, I would have done anything to you.
The problem is, it’s really not me!
I opened my mouth to explain, but found that the other party's logic was completely self-consistent and impeccable.
Regardless of ability or motivation, the biggest suspect seems to be himself...
"Onisang, your failure is your own responsibility, don't you just throw dirty water on me?
Even if you doubt me, you still have to provide evidence?"
Iwasaki Hideyoshi said with an aggrieved look.
He was really aggrieved, but that pretty face with a hint of impostor quality seemed hypocritical no matter how you looked at it.
In the eyes of Iwasaki Yuhei, this is naked confidence!
"Don't be proud! It's best not to let me find the evidence! Humph! Drive!"
Iwasaki Yuhei glared at the other party with burning eyes, got into the business car and drove away...
Iwasaki Hideyoshi was in a mess and his expression was a little stiff.
I originally came to listen to the "whining of defeated dogs", but in the end I got blamed for something inexplicable.
Could this guy know that he will definitely be punished if he goes back, so he plans to sue himself in front of his grandfather to shirk his responsibility?
As expected of his lifelong enemy Yuhei Iwasaki, this trick was made out of nothing and turned against the guest. It was really shameless!
Shaking his head, he put this matter aside for the time being. The top priority now is to find out the whereabouts of the Buddha's head...
Before he arrived in China, he had already used his family's power and money to clear the way and investigated everything that happened that night.
The people sent by Yuhei Iwasaki said with certainty that someone sneak-attacked him less than one meter behind him.
However, in the surveillance footage obtained by the police, there was only one person from beginning to end.
The backpack containing the Buddha's head suddenly disappeared as if it had evaporated...
This thing... sounds like a ghost story in a museum...
Things definitely don't evaporate out of thin air.
Either he was intercepted halfway as Yuhei Iwasaki guessed, or... it can only be the fault of the Chinese themselves!
If you think about it, you will know that only China has the ability to delete or edit surveillance videos.
The reason why China did this was also very obvious.
After all, if nothing was lost, how could Hua Guo find an excuse to get angry?
Without going crazy, how could the Iwasaki family have suffered a massive hemorrhage?
It’s not a big deal to catch Iwasaki Yuhei, but it’s a big deal to compensate for the lost Buddha head!
If the appraised value of the Buddha's head is not increased five, six, seven or eight times, how can the Chinese country just let it go and let the person go so happily?
"Ghost Thief... Humph! He was basically directing and acting himself, right?"
Iwasaki Hideyoshi showed an expression of being in control, got into another business car and drove away...
…
Looking at the two cars leaving, Wang Zhaoping, who was following them not far away, frowned.
Although the forces behind Iwasaki Yuhei had used diplomatic means to pay an irresistible amount of compensation, they temporarily bailed him out.
However, the Chinese police have not given up the pursuit of the Buddha's head.
Afterwards, they searched the entire museum, digging almost three feet into the ground, but found nothing.
The Buddha's head seemed to have really evaporated out of thin air.
The interrogation of curator Li Haitao also yielded nothing.
At first, he even looked astonished and unaware of the recording on his cell phone.
It wasn't until he came to his senses that he immediately changed his story, saying that his conscience was still intact, and that this was reserved for the police to make meritorious deeds.
Faced with the chance of a reduced sentence, only a fool would say that this "recording" was recorded for him by a "ghost"!
The "ghost thief" had no clue, and Wang Zhaoping and others' suspicions naturally returned to Iwasaki Yuhei!
Although it was clear that he was about to succeed, there was no need to create extra complications and involve himself in it.
But from the beginning to the end, only the person sent by Iwasaki Yuhei approached the Buddha's head...
In the absence of a "second suspect", Yuhei Iwasaki is naturally the biggest suspect!
In this way, Iwasaki Yuhei suspected that the Buddha head was in the hands of Iwasaki Hideyoshi.
Iwasaki Hideyoshi believed that the Buddha's head was still in Chinese hands.
But Hua Guo felt that the Buddha's head might be in the hands of Iwasaki Yuhei...
A perfect closed-loop chain of suspicion emerged...
Instructing people to keep an eye on the Iwasaki family's movements, Wang Zhaoping thought for a while, then picked up the phone and dialed the hotline of "The Chaoyang Masses", the "fifth largest ace intelligence organization in the world"...
【都~都~】
After a few beeps on the phone, I was answered.
【Hey!】(Nawu, drink it, do it, do it, do it...)
Meng Lang's voice came from the opposite side, but the background sound was quite noisy. It seemed a bit like... the kind of Sanskrit Zen singing you heard in the temple?
"Brother Meng, I'm Lao Wang, where are you now? Is it convenient to talk?" Wang Zhaoping said hesitantly.
[It’s convenient, I’m at home, what can I say?]
At home? What kind of Sanskrit chants do you play at home? I thought you were in the temple...
These days, people born in the 90s, even if they are not rappers, still like this style?
Pressing down the doubts in his heart, he said a little embarrassedly.
"Brother Meng, I'm looking for you today because I want to tell you something. Don't be angry after hearing this. It's about the Buddha head..."
Speaking of which, this Buddha head was finally recovered after someone provided information over and over again.
If no one had warned him, the Buddha's head would have been snatched away long ago.
For the sake of national justice, he spared no effort to help for free. It can be said that he was the greatest contributor to the recovery of the Buddha's head.
And before leaving, they repeatedly warned that someone might still be interested in the Buddha's head.
But what about now? Because there is a mole in the museum, the Buddha's head is lost. This is entirely due to their lax supervision and neglect of precautions.
If it were you, you enthusiastically presented the national treasure to the public, but before it even got warm, it was robbed by internal guards...
Doesn't that chill the hearts of people with lofty ideals?
When the Buddha's head was first lost, he wanted to tell Meng Lang about it, but he never knew how to do so.
I just thought that if I could get him back, I would tell Brother Meng about my battle of wits and courage with the "ghost thief".
But as of now, it's still unclear whether the Buddha's head can be recovered.
He still felt that he had to give Meng Lang an explanation no matter what.
[Oh, you are talking about the stolen Buddha head...]
"Uh... Brother Meng, you... you already know everything?"
Wang Zhaoping looked stunned.
Since the case is still being investigated, and the Iwasaki family has used their connections, the matter has not yet come to light, and there is no chance of any relevant reports in the news.
"That's right. With Brother Meng's intelligence capabilities, I definitely can't hide this from you..." Wang Zhaoping smiled bitterly.
[Hey! Don’t tell me what intelligence skills you have. I’m just an insurance salesman. I have more friends and I’ve heard more gossip.
Saying this can easily lead to misunderstanding.]
"Okay! I know Brother Meng you keep a low profile, but I have to solemnly apologize to you on behalf of the government for this matter!
Obviously you have already warned us, but in the end..."
【Don't! What are you apologizing for? It's me who should apologize.】
I stole someone's national treasure and smashed it, but they had to send someone to apologize to me...
Even I feel embarrassed about this...
"Ah? What?" Wang Zhaoping didn't know why.
Listen! Listen! What level of ideological awareness do these people have?
If every Chinese citizen could have this sense of responsibility and not find the reasons from themselves in advance, why would the reputation of the Chinese police be deteriorating?
It turns out that China does not lack good police officers, but good citizens!
But...it sounds a little weird...
"Ahem! Well, brother Meng, please don't make sarcastic remarks to ridicule us. We know that this matter was really poorly done and we have disappointed you."
[How could it be, what I said was from the bottom of my heart... Oh! Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore, you came to me just to talk about this? 】
Wang Zhaoping felt even more embarrassed when he heard this.
"This is just one of the reasons. In addition, I want to ask Brother Meng for help to see if there is any information about the Iwasaki family.
For example...why does the other party want to get that Buddha head again and again?
Although the confessions of Director Li and Iwasaki Yuhei were exactly the same, they said they were gifts for the birthday of the elders in the family.
But based on my many years of experience in handling affairs, I’m afraid this matter is definitely not that simple!”
Hmm... Lao Wang, your intuition is very keen. The Iwasaki family does not just love this Buddha head.
But this is the story of "a long time ago"...
It's a long story, too long to tell you, otherwise I won't be able to explain how I know...
[I'm afraid I can't help with this matter. I can also ask you about domestic gossip. You see, I have never been abroad. Foreign news is really beyond my reach.]
"That's it..." Wang Zhaoping didn't hold out much hope and nodded.
"Okay! Brother Meng, please help me pay attention. If there is any news about the Buddha's head, please tell me as soon as possible."
【sure!】
…
After hanging up the phone, Meng Lang glanced at a yellowed ancient book in the corner of the bookshelf.
The Buddha's head was shattered into pieces, and it would be impossible to find it again.
However, this "Huayan Sutra" can be returned at some time...
Zero has already scanned all the contents, and this book is no longer of any use to him.
He checked it carefully and found that there was no useful information about the "Qishu" on it, and there was no need to worry about the information being leaked.
In fact, in terms of cultural value, this manuscript of the Empress' manuscript is superior to the Buddha's head.
If you exchange one for one, the country will not lose.
We just have to wait for this storm to pass...
"Nawu, drink it, do it, do it, do it, do it..."
Sanskrit Zen chanting still lingers in my ears, a melody that makes people peaceful and peaceful.
Knocked on the notebook.
"Zero, let's continue class!
We just mentioned that at the beginning of zero, nature is inherently good, nature is similar, habits are far apart..."
"If you want to be the Buddha, dragon, and elephant, you must first be a cow, horse, and sentient being..."
[Master, I actually don’t understand why I, a robot, need to learn Buddhism and children’s enlightenment? 】
Meng Lang glanced at it angrily.
"Don't complain that studying is too hard, that's your way to see the world!"
After a pause, there was still something I was holding back in my heart. I was worried that my murderous intent was too strong, so I didn't dare to say it out.
"If there is no way out in this world, then why do we need you..."
